Bio

Doug received his B.S. in naval architecture and marine engineering from Webb Institute in 1997. He holds a M.S. degree from MIT, also in naval architecture and marine engineering. His industry experience comes from five years at Bath Iron Works, working primarily on the DDG-1000 and LCS programs. Doug completed his Ph.D. in Ocean Engineering at the University of Maine in 2009 and joined the MMA faculty the same year.
